New price with the discount included: $46.15

Explanation:

I don't know what you are trying to solve, but here's the work for various things. You can pick the answers you need if you see them here.

1. Find the amount of the discount.

Multiply the retail price by the discount percentage.

$71 x 35% = $24.85

$24.85 is the total discount that was taken off of the original price.

2. Find the price of the item after the discount.

Subtract the amount of the discount from the original price.

$71.00 - $24.85 =$46.15

$46.15 is the new price.

Answer 2

$46.15

Explanation:

So you can just multiply the 71 by 0.65 becuase your paying 65 percent of the price now since it’s 35 percent off and you’ll get 46.15

OR

You can just multiply 0.35 by 71 and get 24.85. Then subtract that form 71. You’ll get 46.15
